Rory is actually the name that we have picked out for a boy. I was so shocked that DH liked it, I wrote it down. He normally want really popular "normal" names.
Adeline is okay.
I don't like any of the boys names.
Cinnabun and Junebug say, "Go Wildcats!"
Livia - Not really a fan
Rory - Not really a fan, but I think of this as more of a boy's name.
Adeline - Not a fan
Ewan - Not a fan
Jonathan - Not a fan
Trace - Not a fan

BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
Livia: With @lfk2013 on this one. Where's the O?
Rory: I'm a sucker for Irish names, but this is more of a boys name to me.
Adeline: Love it, love it, love it! Also like it in Adalyn version. It's on our short list, but H's co-worker has a girl named this and they call her Addy. So he doesn't want to steal the name. So maybe I could convince him for Adeline instead. :-)
Ewan: Um, no.
Johanthan: Nice classic name, but I probably wouldn't use it.
Trace: Negative.

Rory: I think of this more as a boys name. It's cute, but we wouldn't use it.

Rory - Meh.
Adeline - Pretty, but NMS.

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad spermLivia - I think Olivia or Livie are cute, but Livia sounds weird to me. Still wouldn't use the name though.
Rory - I don't see this as a girls name. I only know one person with this name and it's my friend's husband.
Adeline - LOVE! Although I prefer the related name Adalyn.
Ewan - Like it, especially the association with Ewan McGregor because he's awesome. Probably wouldn't use it though.
Jonathan - Good solid name, but wouldn't use it because it's two of my exes names and DHs best friend's name.
Trace - Not a fan at all.
